GAS CHAMBER IN JOHNSTON COUNTY
Sign Now
The Johnston County animal shelter continues to kill unwanted animals in the GAS CHAMBER. Even the sick, injured, pregnant, puppies, and elderly animals are put to death by gas. I'm just one concerned citizen who wants this changed to euthanasia by injection. This method is painless, faster, and more cost effective. It would put an end to the suffering that accompanies death in the gas chamber. Our county euthanizes 3000 per year. This method is considered by many to be outdated. Animals in a gas chamber do not die quickly or painlessly. They struggle for breath. They claw to get out. This is not a pretty site and will stay with you for a very long time. When animals inhale carbon monoxide, they can suffer convulsions, vomiting, angina, and muscular spasms. Some will not die the first time.
The use of injections is the number one recommended way by the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Humane Society of the United States and the American Humane Association. The American Humane Association considers EBI the only acceptable method for euthanasia of dogs and cats in animal shelters. However, some shelters, mainly county operated, still use the gas chamber. Johnston Countys chamber holds up to EIGHT DOGS BEING EUTHANIZED AT ONE TIME!!! So Please Sign This So We Can Help Stop This Inhuman Way To Kill This Poor Animals!!!!!!!!!
